Great experience and fun.. they do not return unless we see the whales and they are experienced in spotting them. We saw four whales and a couple of dolphins

Saw dolphins and orcas.
Trip was a bit long since we couldn’t spot whales initially, but the crew did not give up until we saw something.

Spotted the whale. The Crew and the team searched for the whale to show up for us. Worth for the money.

Guide was good and we saw quite a few whales and some dolphins that day.
There was not anyone holding up the name board sign, but I was informed in advance over whatsapp and had all my inquiries answered. Good service.

This one’s an amazing experience and a must do while in Mirissa. The best part about operator is that they use eco friendly methods to stop dolphins unlike other operators that use old boats which make a lot of noise and disturb the natural habitat of the whales this one uses a very well maintained one. A short and simple breakfast with some fresh coconut water and watermelon to end the trip. Definitely recommended! 🙂

The guide team makes sure you are taken to the deep sea where they would spot the whales. Great experience. Be very lite on your stomach, beware of sea sickness

It was an amazing experience. We saw blue whales. We were mesmerised as we saw whales for the first time in our lives. Special mention of all the staff on the board who served us with
1. Tea
2. Water bottles
3. Sandwich
4. Pineapple
5. Cake
6. Water melon
7. Roti with sauce
8. Coca cola
9. Coconut water
10. Banana
Honestly we didn’t expect so much. Also they provided us with sea sickness tablets and really took great care of us and made our first whale watching experience a memorable one

Overall, we had a lovely time going whale watching and the crew of our boat were wonderful, very welcoming and made sure we were well looked after. We did see some amazing marine wildlife that day (blue whales, whale sharks, sea turtles, flying fish) but it took a long and might have been due to the fact that there is just a bit too much whale watching happening. At times, there were 17 boats in competition for the best spot to see the whale. They all claim to be respectful to the animals, but they all want to also make sure there guests get what they have paid for so they all go in on the animals and get really close. But that applies to all the companies, even those who advertise whale watching on a sailing boat. When the whale is near, the sails come done and the motor comes on. Si, while I did enjoy seeing the animals close up the whole thing also made me feel quite uncomfortable. Depending on how you feel about this, it’s a good experience.

Wow this trip is amazing, we saw lots of dolphins and it was surreal. The guide was friendly and he will alert us whenever the whales are coming. It’s rare to see whales up close but that’s their nature, and at least the guide tried his best not to let us miss out the chance. Coffee and tea, refreshments were also provided. Good service and experience.
